Windows 10: Start menu, settings and search bars don't work on windows 11

Hey guys, I got a new gaming desktop, setting it up was going well for the most part, I was just downloading apps when it suddenly stopped letting me use the settings, search bar and start menu, this is driving me insane, I tried accessing settings through run, I tried accessing settings through everything but sometimes it would just send me this error code, file system error -805306367, I tried making a new user using power shell, but when I tried to login it was just a blaxk screen where I can move my cursor, it was working completely fine when it started doing this, please guys I really n

Windows 10 64bit, can't type in search bar / start menu, tried powershell fix but didn't help

Hello guys and search for a solution for this problem and its was the simple of things.

I don´t know why it works but try it and tell if it works for you guys too.

• Press Win + R (to open Run )
• copy paste and press enter to run this program. "C:\Windows\system32\ctfmon.exe". it brings back the language bar and for me it allowed me to type in windows search, start menu and WINDOWS 10 apps again

I think it is due to missing Language bar or some think like that.

Best regards.

Hello,



Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.



I request you to follow the below Suggestions:

1. The Search bar in Widows 10 is more fast and easy. You can search your program by typing it in Search bar.

2. You can use the exact interface of Start menu of Windows 8 in Windows 10. Follow the steps below.

• Click Start menu and select "Settings".
• Click on "Personalization" and select "Start".
• Turn "Use Start full screen"

I hope this helps you. If you have any further query in future, feel free to contact us. We will be happy to help you.
